Tzedek Centers מרכזים לצדק חברתי

Founded in 2016, Tzedek Centers operates with an eye towards Israel’s long-term democratic future through a combination of deep, grassroots work and shorter-term, high-impact initiatives. As caring and dedicated citizens who aspire to see a better society here, the challenges of inequality, social polarization, and a lack of trust in the government impact our future. At Tzedek Centers, we firmly believe that local civic organizing is the key to addressing and transforming this situation. At Tzedek Centers, we bring together city residents to participate in training programs for social change. Through these programs, we provide them with tools, connect them with partners, and together build a shared vision. Graduates of the courses establish groups to improve city policies, lead local campaigns and social initiatives, assume leadership positions, and collectively nurture a local community of changemakers, building a broad national movement across cities. This national grassroots movement, composed of organized communities in cities across Israel, works to build a vibrant democracy we can be proud of.
